Postman Supports OpenAPI 3.0

Postman recently announced that their platform now supports importing OpenAPI 3.0 specifications. This addition increases flexibility across formats within the API development environment and allows them to more seamlessly integrate into the developer’s API development workflow.

OpenAPI support will be available to all the users running v 6.6. OpenAPI provides a standardized format which allows API developers to perform quick and simple validation, auto-generate documentation with examples for easy integration, auto-generate client libraries and tests, and much more. This allows the developer to simultaneously take advantage of both OpenAPI and Postman Collections.

Abhinav Asthana, CEO & Co-founder, Postman, said, “Importing OpenAPI specs have been a much-requested feature from Postman users, and we’re thrilled to be able to deliver it today. We are committed to becoming the leading platform for API development, and today’s announcement is critical to that vision.”

It is the only complete API development environment that designed for the entire lifecycle of designing, building, testing, and monitoring APIs. It’s packed with all the features to support every stage of API development, and benefits developers working individually, collaborating in small teams or industry leading enterprises. Postman is an integral part of API development in the best technical teams in the world, including Atlassian, VMware, PayPal, and DocuSign.
